Monday! Happy tax day! Woke up this morning feeling pretty good. I really thought I would be sore after the long run yesterday but nope. Makes me feel good about the training program. Today it is chilly again in Denver with a wind chill in the 20s. Got a good 8 laps in walking at horseshoe park. It was brisk to say the least but it was a bit of low impact exercise. I might go with the wife to the gym tonight, we will see how I feel after work.
On my walk today I reflected on how it has been a month since was had to put Cassie down. She was a great dog and maybe even better than I originally thought. Since she has been gone I have noticed Alex's behaviors change. Alex is 3 years old now and she has always been the aloof pup, testing limits and what not. Now I see little changes that she had to have learned from Cassie. For example, when the kids are outside playing in the front yard Cassie used to keep an eye on the through the storm door. I came home the other day and Alex has secured that post. Just laying there, not nearly as alert looking as Cassie was, but still keeping an eye on the kids. I am intrigued and wonder how much more Alex learned from cassie. I guess we'll find out.
update edit: I went to the gym with the wifey and hit the hamster wheel again for another low impact burn. 36 mins of 2.5 mph at 15° incline and another 24mins at 3.5 to 4 mph at 5° to 9° incline, around 950 calorie burn. 2 hours of walking today
